For new founders this is a great reference of what a high quality launch video looks like.
Notice he doesn't say "AI" anywhere, you know watching it is AI – he doesn't need to say it.
Also notice the simplicity. It is so simple. I could give this to an 8th grader and they would understand. Lastly, tasteful and good audio/video. Impressed.
We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity.
This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.

LISTEN UP - YOU CAN TAKE YOUR DOG WITH YOU.
Two days ago, a missile interception nearby affected a building in Dubai Marina - alarmingly close to my apartment.
Sirens blaring on my phone every day, constant uncertainty, fear (even with Dubai's amazing air defense system)...
Yet not for a single second did I consider leaving without Mooncake(my little Corgi for context). She’s not just a pet - she’s family. Every extra effort, every sleepless night, has been 100% worth it.
_______________________________
Here’s the step-by-step process I followed to get Mooncake (and myself) safely out of the region:
1 - Visit your vet first
Get a "fit to travel" check and health certificate. Your dog must have:
- A valid microchip
- Up-to-date rabies vaccination (maybe RNATT Test)
- Recent deworming (and any other required treatments/tests)
2 - Contact your airline early
(min. 72 hours prior to departure)
Confirm whether your dog qualifies for:
- In-cabin (carry-on)
- Checked baggage / excess baggage
- Or full cargo hold
Ask about size/weight limits for the carrier. You can order an IATA-compliant pet carrier quickly in Dubai (e.g., via The PetShop or NOWNOW - often delivered in 90–120 minutes).
3 - Handle MOCCAE requirements
For flights: Apply for the veterinary health certificate for export/re-export of live animals via their online portal (valid for 30 days).
For road travel: Request a transit permit if needed.
Website: https://t.co/YTEKkzxO5s (register for e-services, fill the form, pay, and arrange the physical exam).
MOCCAE’s customer support is genuinely helpful- they guide you to the correct Veterinary Quarantine Check location (e.g., one at DXB Freezone/Airport area).
4 - Go for the official check
Take your dog and all documents to the approved MOCCAE Veterinary Quarantine area (often at the airport or designated centers). They scan the microchip, do a quick physical exam, and finalize the paperwork.
5 - Submit everything to the airline
Send copies of the vet certificate, MOCCAE docs, and any other requirements they ask for. Double-check if they need anything extra (some airlines are stricter).
6 - Stay persistent!
You may need to call the airline 3–4 times a day to keep things moving. They’re usually trying their best under pressure - don’t give up.
If the process feels overwhelming, professional pet relocation services in Dubai (like Carry My Pet, Sandy Paws, DKC, or PawPaths) specialize in this exact situation. (Your Vet has contacts!)
They handle paperwork, coordination, and logistics so you and your pet can travel together safely.
It breaks my heart to see people abandoning their animals in moments like these. I could have left days earlier. I chose not to.
If Mooncake stays, I stay.
After grinding through days of calls, forms, visits, and stress - I finally got it all approved.
Please don’t leave your pet behind.
Remember the day you brought them home.
The instant joy, the unconditional love, the pure happiness that little soul poured into your life.
Your dog is your best friend for only part of your life…
but you are their entire world for their whole life.
